In Chapter 13 of To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus decides that his children, Scout, in particular, need a feminine influence in the home.

What happens at the end of chapter 13 To Kill a Mockingbird?

Atticus assures her it's going to be fine and tells her to forget everything. As he leaves, he tells his bewildered children that he's becoming more like Cousin Joshua every day. It's clear to the reader that Aunt Alexandra put Atticus up to this, but that Atticus's heart isn't in it.

What does Atticus tell Scout at the end of the chapter 13?

After this Aunt Alexandra sends Atticus to talk to the kids about being proud of their superior heritage, but he just scares them because he doesn't usually talk to them in that way. Scout ends up crying on his lap, and Atticus tells them both to forget it.
